A new recipe for cornbread, a Southern US staple, has been published by Felicity Cloake. The recipe outlines how to prepare the dish, which can be substantial enough to serve as a main meal.
The preparation involves a 10-minute prep time, a 2-hour soaking period, and 25 minutes of cooking. The recipe yields six servings and is gluten-free.
Ingredients include coarse cornmeal or polenta, buttermilk, eggs, and baking powder. The recipe also suggests optional additions such as grated cheddar or red Leicester cheese, jalapeño chilli, cooked beans, or crumbled fried bacon for flavour variations.
